We present a four-body semileptonic charm decay D^+ into K^-pi^+mu^+nu analysis in the range of 0.65 GeV/c^2 < mkpi < 1.5 GeV/c^2. We observe a low mass scalar contribution of 5.30 +- 0.74 + 0.99 - 0.96 % with respect to the total D^+ into…
The PHENIX experiment has measured mid-rapidity transverse momentum spectra (0.4 < p_T < 4.0 GeV/c) of single electrons as a function of centrality in Au+Au collisions at sqrt(s_NN) = 200 GeV. Contributions to the raw spectra from photon…
A pedagogically oriented review is given of progress made over the past year in our understanding of physics related to the charm quark. Included are discussions of the R_c deficit, the \psi' anomaly, charm spectroscopy, D nonleptonic…
The CLEO collaboration proposes to explore the charm sector starting early 2003. It is foreseen to collect on the order of 6 million D D-bar pairs, 300000 Ds Ds-bar pairs at threshold and one billion J/psi decays. High precision charm data…
We present our first set of results for charm physics, using the mixed-action setup introduced in a companion paper. Maximally twisted Wilson valence fermions are used on a sea of non-perturbatively $O(a)$-improved Wilson fermions, made up…
We report the first observation of a charm-strange meson D_sJ(2632) at a mass of 2632.5+/-1.7 MeV/c^2 in data from SELEX, the charm hadro-production experiment E781 at Fermilab. This state is seen in two decay modes, D_s eta and D^0 K^+. In…
The role of charm in testing the Standard Model description of quark mixing and CP violation through measurements of lifetimes, decay constants and semileptonic form factors is reviewed. Together with Lattice QCD, charm has the potential…
Prompt neutrinos due to the decay of charmed mesons produced in the atmosphere from cosmic-ray and atmospheric nuclei interactions may be a significant source of background to ultra-high energy neutrino searches above 10 TeV. We re-evaluate…
The two-particle momentum correlation functions between charm mesons ($\mathrm{D^{*\pm}}$ and $\mathrm{D}^\pm$) and charged light-flavor mesons ($\pi^{\pm}$ and K$^{\pm}$) in all charge-combinations are measured for the first time by the…
There has been significant recent experimental activity on the related topics of charm mixing and rare (flavor changing neutral current) decay. For mixing, several new results from direct (wrong sign) searches and first results from…
Charm procceses are usually not considered to be favorable candidates in the search for new physics. Recent disagreement between experimental and lattice QCD results on the D_s decay constant has motivated us to systematically reinvestigate…
We summarize recent results for charm physics. These results span several categories: charm mixing, indirect (time-dependent) CP violation, direct (time-integrated) CP violation, T violation, semileptonic and leptonic decays, and decays of…
Using the FOCUS spectrometer (experiments 687 and 831 at Fermilab) we confirm the existence of a diffractively photoproduced enhancement in $K^+K^- $ at 1750 \mevcc with nearly 100 times the statistics of previous experiments. We also…
We report first STAR measurement on two heavy-flavor particle correlations in p+p collisions at RHIC. Heavy-flavor (charm and bottom) events are identified and separated on a statistical basis by the azimuthal correlation of their decay…
In this research we describe effective Hamiltonian theory and apply this theory to the calculation of current-current $Q_{12}$ and QCD penguin $Q_{3...6}$ decay rates We calculate the decay rates of semileptonic and hadronic of charm quark…
A high statistics sample of photoproduced charm particles from the FOCUS (E831) experiment at Fermilab has been used to search for CP violation in the Cabibbo suppressed decay modes D+ to K-K+pi+, D0 to K-K+ and D0 to pi-pi+. We have…
In tau physics, we are at the frontier between the completion of the LEP program and the start of analyses from b-factories, which are expected to produce results in the coming years. Nice results from CLEO are steadily delivered in the…
We review some selected topics in the decays of heavy flavours, beauty and charm, which are of principal interest at HERA-B and HERA. The topics in $B$ physics include: an update on the quark mixing matrix and CP violating phases, issues…
Rare flavour changing neutral current (FCNC) decays of top, beauty and charm quarks can provide a powerful probe for as yet unobserved particles. Recent results on FCNC $b \to s$, $c \to u$ and $t$ transitions from the LHC experiments are…
The high-luminosity Super $\tau$-Charm Factory (STCF) will be a crucial facility for charm-physics research, particularly for the precise measurement of electroweak parameters, measuring $D^0$-$\bar{D}^0$ mixing parameters, investigating…
